View MoreSebastian froze in the doorway, his eyes widening in surprise as he caught sight of Katherine standing near the window in her revealing nightwear. The delicate fabric hugged her figure, displaying her elegant features. He quickly averted his gaze, feeling a rush of discomfort and confusion."Katherine, what are you wearing?" Sebastian stammered, trying to regain his composure. He couldn't understand why Katherine would choose to dress in such a seducing manner when the rest of her family was mourning their foster sister's death, especially considering the strained atmosphere between them.Katherine turned to face Sebastian, her expression unreadable, she bit her lower lip. "I didn't expect to see you here," she replied coolly, her tone laced with a hint of defiance. "Is it a crime to dress to impress, honey?"Sebastian shifted uncomfortably, feeling the weight of the awkward silence between them. "I... I was just coming to check on you," he explained, his voice faltering slightly.Kat

Lillian's heart sank, tears streamed down her cheeks uncontrollably. She collapsed to the ground, overcome with sadness.Katherine, on the other hand, remained stoic and unmoved. Mrs. Alfred noticed Katherine's lack of emotion and gently asked, "Katherine, don't you feel any sadness about Maya's passing?"Katherine glanced at her mother with a cold expression as she rolled her eyes heavenward. "Why should I be sad? Maya wasn't family," she replied curtly.Mrs. Alfred was taken aback by Katherine's careless response. "But she was your foster sister, Katherine. You lived together for years. Surely you must feel something," she implored.Katherine's eyes narrowed, a spark of resentment flashing in her gaze. "I've learned not to waste tears on those who don't matter," she retorted sharply.Lillian, still sobbing on the floor, looked up with tear-streake
Katherine stood near the entrance of the cafeteria, her gaze fixed on Maya as she happily served the last customer in line.

Katherine's heart raced with a mixture of anger and determination as she watched Maya. She had rehearsed this moment countless times in her mind, preparing for the confrontation she was about to initiate.Finally, with the cafe momentarily empty, Maya looked up and noticed Katherine standing by the entrance.

As Katherine lay on the bed that evening, her mind was consumed by Mrs. Rojas's words and the unsettling revelation about her family's alleged betrayal. Tears continued to trickle down her cheeks as she cried with the profound sense of betrayal and fear that gripped her heart.Even though her family tried to kill her one part of her couldn't just do what Mrs Rojas was asking her to do, it was wicked and heartless, but she didn't want to appear weak to them either.Beside her, Katie, her young daughter, stirred and noticed her mother's distress. "Mommy, what's wrong?" Katie asked, her voice tinged with concern.Katherine wiped her tears and forced a smile. "Oh, sweetheart, it's nothing. Mommy's just a little tired," she replied, her voice strained.Katie frowned but didn't press further, snuggling closer to her mother for comfort.After a few moments, Katherine gently kissed Katie on the forehead and whispered, "Let's get you to your room, sweetheart."Once Katie was settled in her own
Katherine's eyes burned with fury as she watched Sebastian and Lillian lying on the bed together, their bodies close in sleep. She clenched her fists, her mind consumed by anger and bitterness directed solely at Lillian.Mrs. Rojas observed Katherine's seething rage with a calculating expression. This situation presented an opportunity—an opportunity to manipulate Katherine's emotions for her gain, to finally have her way in embarrassing the Alfred family in public.Stepping closer to Katherine, Mrs. Rojas spoke in a low voice. "Katherine, come with me," she said, her tone smooth yet filled with underlying intent.Katherine turned to her mother-in-law, her eyes flashing with resentment and almost falling down her cheek. "What do you want?" she demanded, her voice sharp with bitterness.Mrs. Rojas gestured subtly toward her room. "Let's have a private conversation," she suggested, her voice laced with intrigue.Reluctantly, Katherine followed Mrs. Rojas into her room. Once inside, Mrs.
They both felt a small tremor course through Lillian at the sudden contact, her body responding automatically to him. His fingers caressed her hips gently as he moved his mouth from hers and trailed down her neck, pressing against her collarbone. She tilted her head back, giving him easier access as their tongues continued exploring each other.He nipped at her jawline playfully before trailing his lips along her throat, eliciting a soft moan from her and causing his chest muscles to tense. When he moved up again to kiss her once more, her hands slipped under his shirt and rested against his bare skin. They explored every inch of each other's bodies, finding all sorts of hidden areas they never had in their previous encounters. Sebastian's fingers played lightly against her breasts while his other arm snaked around her waist as he deepened their embrace. Lillian wrapped her legs around Sebastian's torso, allowing him to move his arms up and over her shoulders, pulling her tightly aga
Mr. Rojas stood up, walking over to Lillian with a furrowed brow. "Lillian, what's the matter? You seem sad," he asked gently.Lillian took a deep breath, trying to compose herself before speaking. "Mr. Rojas, I... I can't continue this marriage," she began, her voice wavering with emotion. "With Katherine back, it's too much for me to bear."Mr. Rojas nodded thoughtfully, his expression sympathetic. "I understand, Lillian. It's been a difficult situation for everyone," he replied, his tone reassuring.Mrs. Rojas interjected, her voice laced with false concern. "Of course, dear. We want what's best for you," she said, her words tinged with insincerity.Lillian's eyes narrowed slightly, unsure of Mrs. Rojas's true intentions. However, she appreciated Mr. Rojas's understanding demeanor."I can't stay in the same room with Sebastian anymore," Lillian admitted, her voice barely above a whisper.Mr. Rojas nodded in understanding. "I completely understand. How about this? I'll arrange for a

Part of her body were visible by the as Sebastian couldn't look away but instead she admire her.

Lilian entered the bedroom quietly, her footsteps light on the marble floor. The moment she entered the room she noticed Sebastian as he sat on the edge of the bed, his brow furrowed in deep thought with hands resting on his forehead. Lilian hesitated, unsure whether to speak to him or leave him to his thoughts.Deciding to keep to herself, Lilian moved towards the bed to retrieve her pillow, intending to return to her usual spot on the floor.
